Special Counsel Robert Hur says Biden 'willfully' kept classified documents but won't be prosecuted

The stuff he stole

 

No, pence wasn’t charged for the same reason bushs AG wasn’t

 

Bottom line:

Robert Hur, as special counsel, conducted a yearlong probe into President Biden's handling of classified documents.

Hur, a Republican nominated by Trump to be a U.S. Attorney, absolved Biden of legal culpability.

Biden's violation of protocol is not unique. Mike Pence had repeatedly said he did not have any in his possession, bur classified documents were discovered at the former vice president’s new home in Carmel, Indiana.

Pence will not be charged, either, although no one has formally exonerated him.

 

Now I think that is the burning question, did he steal it or was he cleared to have them given his position as President?

 

He wasn’t president, he was just a guy who used to be president

 

He's still Mr president with many of the rights and perks

 

And Hur found there was insufficient evidence to convict him of any crime.

 

None of those include keeping stuff the govt wants back

 

In an interview yesterday Hur repeatedly said that nowhere in his report did it say he was exonerated. Biden was guilty he declined to prosecute an old man with a shaky memory.

 

They got it back.

 

The President was found guilty of nothing.

As is customary:

Mueller declares his Russia report did not exonerate Trump​

Special Counsels do not "exonerate."

Hur's personal opinion of Biden's mental acuity (or his neckties, for that matter) is irrelevant. He has no expertise in those areas that were not within his remit.

You should not take the fact that no one has "exonerated" Mike Pence as implying his culpability.

 

Then why didn't he bring forth charges? Forget about memory because Hur told Biden he appeared to have a photographic memory.

 

No sir, he was in violation of the law but Hur didn't figure he could get a conviction given that Biden is a Democrat and has seen better days. Stumbling in and out of a courtroom in his decreased capacity it wasn't worth the trouble.

 

Sarcasm most likely.

 

No, you made that up. Republican Hur expressed nothing concerning the President's political party.

What he did say:

“Unlike the evidence involving Mr. Biden, the allegations set forth in the indictment of Mr. Trump, if proven, would present serious aggravating facts.”

“Most notably, after being given multiple chances to return classified documents and avoid prosecution, Mr. Trump allegedly did the opposite.”​

 

Sure lol!

I guess we can expect prosecutors to drop charges if the defendant says they don't recall/remember, right?

 

Trump believed he had a right to have those papers, Biden's ghost was probably finished with his and had copies of the most important ones.

 

Your presumptions are noted.

Why did the loser hide and lie about having them if he believed he had some nebulous "right" to have them?

 

Might if conditions made it possible.

The wheels of justice grind slowly.

 

Then he should have asserted that in court when he was subpoenaed. Not tried to hide stuff he wanted to keep

 

Nobody gets charged just for having docs.

 

Well, he's in court and he's asserting.

 

lol the smart time to do that would have been before defying the subpoena

 

Trump's desperate hope is to bring them to a screening halt.

If he expected to be acquitted, he would be hellbent on clearing his name before November.
